Guys, I have a 2007 Toyota Prado. This car is very similar to the Lexus GX 470.
My Problem is that several times, thiefs are stealing the factory front bumper halogens from my car.
This next time I going to manufacture a metal braket in order that is almost imposible to pull them out BUT what I want is to install a shock sensor or some type of sensor that when they tamper with the halogen triguer my Hornet Alarm.
I was thinking to intall on the back of the halogens a shock sensor but I think the water or elements will damage the sensor.
Is there is a water proof sensor for this? Any ideas?
THX,
Isaac
Here is a pic of the car similar to mine. You can see the bumper halogens

You can install a tilt sensor or a mercury switch instead. If the mercury switch is jarred or moved, it will connect and will set the alarm off. Most mercury switches are weather proof and are designed to be installed under the engine in the elements.
